Stormlover74 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 That cluster in PA looks healthy as it starts to cross the delaware. Hard to tell if its moving due east or a slight jog to the north.

Isotherm Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 High of 83 here in C-NJ (Monroe) one of the nicer easter's in recent memory. Some light rain and clouds now. Yeah high of 83 here as well. Easter being so late this year definitely helped our chance for it being a nice day. IIRC, most of our recent ones were either raining or colder than normal. Looks like a batch of storms coming in, nothing severe though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isotherm Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 John -- those cells in northern Mercer look pretty sexy; they're headed my way. Hopefully the Monmouth County T-storm shield doesn't rear its ugly head like usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the Monmouth County T-storm shield doesn't rear its ugly head like usual. Still 1000+j/kg of MUCAPE south of Staten Island...SBCAPE isn't bad either..over 750 joules as well. Shouldn't have a problem at least getting heavy rain and lightning/thunder given the good 0-6km bulk shear supporting updrafts..although it's less likely now that they will be boundary layer rooted.

Yeah Tim, I hope so. It's still very early in the season, I usually don't expect a decent storm until June in our area, but I also don't expect much out of our T-storm season. Which is why I'm generally pretty disappointed when we have a crappy winter as the warm season certainly doesn't compensate in the excitement department. We've have a good T-storm summer come around about once every 5 years it seems, much less frequent than 12"+ snows recently. Total rainfall was 0.41" here. 63/61 with a bit of mist now.

pazzo83 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Although to your credit dude, the ever accurate AccuWx 15 day looks pretty crappy here by late next week. Well, not crappy per se but not great: 60s and rainy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsentropicLift Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I do realize that a negative NAO swing is not the same in April or May as it would be in January or February, however, just looking at the long range GFS, the barrage of lows continues. If anything, that western Atlantic ridge shifts further offshore allowing the storm track to shift a tad further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
